Alas, car trouble

So yeah. We got twenty (20) miles outside of Ukiah, and my trusty (but secretly treacherous, apparently) Subaru blew a head gasket. Poor Minnow (that's the car). We're lucky it happened right out of town--family came and helped us. I mean, if you're going to break down, you could do a lot worse than having people come tow you home and then make you omlettes. My Subaru is in distress though--we're taking it to the shop on Monday, and hoping to be out of here by Wednesday or Thursday. Of course we are frustrated and disappointed, but we will be able to do a few things we didn't get to here in Ukiah, so that is a silver lining.
